It's not often that kickers steal the spotlight but when one breaks a franchise record with seven successful field goals in a game, tongues start wagging. That’s exactly what unheralded Jason Myers did last week which contributed mightily to the Jets' 42-34 victory over the Colts. The Marist College product drilled 30, 48, 32, 37, 45, 37 and 45-yard attempts through the uprights and his 24 points are the second-highest single-game total by any player who did not score a touchdown in league history. Myers was claimed off waivers from the Seahawks prior to the season and out-dueled Taylor Bertolet for the kicking spot.

If you ask many NFL analysts, they will tell you that the New England Patriots have all but wrapped up the AFC East, without Tom Brady throwing a football, such is the superiority they have other their divisional rivals. The Bills, Dolphins and the Jets will go up against them once more this season, looking to break the stranglehold that Brady has, not only on the division, but on the entire NFL.

The Jets continued purging their expensive veterans today, as they cut MLB David Harris and WR Eric Decker. Harris' departure is quite a surprise considering that he's been the cornerstone of the Jets defense for 10 seasons. His cap figure of $6.5M, however, along with the Gang Green's direction of getting younger have made him expendable.

Things went from bad to worse for the New York Jets earlier today, as they placed starting WR Eric Decker on injured reserve, pretty much ending his season. Decker, who caught 80 passes for 1,027 yards and 12 TDs last season, missed the last two games after getting injured in Week 3 against the Chiefs.

The New York Jets signed two more of their draft picks, bringing the total up to five. WR Quincy Enunwa (6th round, 209 overall) from Nebraska and DE IK Enemkpali (6th round, 210 overall) from Louisiana Tech both signed 4-year contracts.
